How to install extensions from the extension manager with PythonSlicer

Hi

I’m building a docker container chain for testing purposes and I ran into a problem that I can’t install an extension from the extension manager while building the image.

Normally I would use something similar to the example in the script repository but the problem is that in PythonSlicer there is no slicer.app.

Can anyone advice how to move forward with this issue?

I think I’ve found it.

I’ll try to follow the example set here

github.com

Slicer/SlicerDocker/blob/master/slicer-notebook/install.sh

#!/bin/bash

set -e
set +x

script_dir=$(cd $(dirname $0) || exit 1; pwd)
PROG=$(basename $0)

err() { echo -e >&2 ERROR: $@\\n; }
die() { err $@; exit 1; }

if [ "$#" -ne 1 ]; then
  die "Usage: $PROG /path/to/Slicer-X.Y.Z-linux-amd64/Slicer"
fi

slicer_executable=$1

################################################################################
# Set up headless environment
source $script_dir/start-xorg.sh

This file has been truncated. show original

and create an install script that I will run during container build

You should find more information here: https://slicer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/developer_guide/script_repository.html#install-slicer

Yep. My actual problem was that I was using an older example that referenced the old extension manager api
